"New Favorite Memory"

"New Favorite Memory"



You're fumbling around in the bedroom,
Trying to put on your shoes,
Hair still down, dress half on,
Looking like you’re about to blow a fuse.
I know what’s about to happen,
I can read you like a book,
You’re about to shoot that cute little "yeah, we're late" look...

And there it is,
Baby, don’t move,
I wanna soak this in,
I’ve got a new favorite memory of you.

Driving through town, running red lights
You take my hand in the car,
Finally make it to the restaurant,
And our friends are two drinks in at the bar.
I know what's about to happen,
Yeah, folks don’t change that dial,
She’s about to light the room up with a laugh and a smile...

And there it is,
Baby, don’t move,
I wanna soak this in,
I’ve got a new favorite memory of you.

Yeah, I’m gonna fall farther,
Baby, I know, wait for it
And wait for it,
Here I go...

You're fumbling around in the bedroom,
Trying to take off your shoes,
Hair back down, dress half off,
You look at me...

And there it is,
Baby, don’t move,
I wanna soak this in,
I’ve got a new favorite memory of you.

Here we go again,
I've got a new favorite memory of you.

"No"

"No"



On my fifth birthday, I got so upset,
About the brand new bike that I didn't get.
I'd prayed my heart out, and it didn't seem fair,
I told my Grandpa, "I guess God doesn't care,"
and he just smiled and said, "My child,

Make no mistake, every prayer you pray,
Gets answered, even though,
Sometimes, the answer is no."

Five years later, out behind the shed,
With a stolen pack of grandpa's cigarettes,
I struck a match, and held that first one to my lips,
and prayed to God, "Please let me get away with this."
And through the smoke, I saw grandpa standing there.

Make no mistake, every prayer you pray,
Gets answered, even though,
Sometimes, the answer is no.

When I think of all the answers in my life, I would have to say,
There's no doubt it was always for the best,
When I didn't get my way.

Grandpa got older, like grandpas do,
His health was failing, and I guess I knew,
It'd be best if he was called on hold,
But selfishly I prayed that God would keep him hanging on,
And when he passed away, in my mind I heard him say.

Make no mistake, every prayer you pray,
Gets answered, even though,
Sometimes, the answer is no.

Sometimes the answer is no.

"Nobody's Fool"

"Nobody's Fool"



Had the time of my life
Before I could see what was really going on
And what you really thought of me.
Look at me now, eyes open wide,
Wiser today and driving away with my shattered pride.

Now I’m nobody’s fool
It ain't no fun anymore
Cause now that I’m nobody’s fool
I'd rather be yours

Well you know what they say
The truth sets you free
And that’s just great unless you don’t wanna be
And you can keep the last laugh,
Cause I don’t like how it feels
When you save face, but your heart breaks
Well you’ve cut the wrong deal.

Now I’m nobody’s fool
I miss the way it was before
Don’t wanna be nobody’s fool
I wanna be your, your, yours

Cause I'm a fool anyway
Whether I leave or stay
So why, why did I have to run?
I wanna make you laugh,
I wanna make you smile,
I wanna feel like I belong to someone.

Now I’m nobody’s fool
It ain't no fun anymore
Cause now that I’m nobody’s fool
I wanna be yours, yours.

Don’t wanna be nobody’s fool.
I wanna be yours.

"Officially Alive"

"Officially Alive"



So you ruffled some feathers, yeah, you’ve done it now
Turned the tables in the temple clean upside down
You’re out on a ledge and one thing’s for sure
When you’ve got ‘em all wishin’ you’d never been born

Congratulations, you are officially alive
It’s confirmation you are officially alive

It’s not the double kick of an ultrasound
Or a piece of paper on file downtown
It takes more than a beat and a breath and a name
It’s when you’re so in love and so in pain

Congratulations, you are officially alive
Here’s affirmation, you are officially alive

Yeah, it’s a tragedy to go through history and simply just exist
You’re gonna realize how quick it flies by and everything you missed
And suddenly you’re standing there in scrubs
Love has found new flesh and blood
It’s a feeling you weren’t ready for
When you’re lookin’ in eyes that look like yours

Congratulations, you are officially alive
This is creation, you are officially alive
You are officially alive

"Oh Love"

"Oh Love"
(feat. Carrie Underwood)



[Brad Paisley]
Strong like a mother holds her child
Free as horses running wild
And real as a prayer on a lonely night
And sure as the ocean tide

[Both]
Oh love
Oh love
Oh the many colors that you're made of
You heal
You bleed
You're the simple truth
And you're the biggest mystery
Oh love
Oh Love

[Carrie Underwood]
Deep as the life from Gods own breath
And it's even after death
Gone like the sunset

[Brad Paisley]
You can break a heart in pieces
Put it back together again

[Carrie Underwood]
You can break down sweet forgiveness
You're the one that never ends

[Both]
Oh Love
Ooooohhhh
Ooooohhhh
Oh love
Oh love
Oh the many colors that you're made of
You heal
You bleed
You're the simple truth
And you're the biggest mystery
Oh love
Oh love
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

"Oh Yeah, You're Gone"

"Oh Yeah, You're Gone"



I opened my eyes, look at the clock,
It says eight fifteen,
Stumble out of bed, fumble down the hall,
Still half asleep.

Opened up a window, opened up the paper,
And put some coffee on, grab two cups,
Oh yeah, you're gone.

Shower and shave, take a little time to read the news,
Sort through the mail,
See something about some sale they're having on women's shoes,

Billy's band is playing at the Canyon club on Friday,
I bet they sing our song, maybe we can go,
Oh year, you're gone.

This is gonna take some getting used to baby,
I'm gonna need more time,
Cause I still say us when I ought to say me,
I still say ours instead of mine,
Every plan I make, every road I take,
I still see you riding along,
Then suddenly it hits me,
Oh yeah, you're gone.

This is gonna take some getting used to baby,
I think I need more time,
Because I still say us, when I ought to say me,
I still say ours instead of mine,
Every plan I make, every road I take,
I still see you riding alone,
Then suddenly it hits me,
Oh yeah, you're gone.

Oh there ain't no doubt about it baby,
Oh yeah, you're gone.

"Old Alabama"
(with Alabama)

"Old Alabama"
(with Alabama)



She’d rather wear a pair of cut-off jeans than a fancy evening dress,
And with her windows rolled down and her hair all blown around, she’s a hot southern mess...
She’ll take a beer over white wine and a campfire over candle light,
And when it comes to love, oh her idea of a romantic night...

Is listenin’ to old Alabama, drivin' through Tennessee...
A little Dixieland Delight at the Right Time of the Night,
And she can’t keep her hands off of me-ee-eee!

And now we’re rollin’ down an old back road,
I got the steering wheel in one hand...
We’ll find a hideaway where she and I can play,
In Mother Nature’s band...

Now we’re listenin’ to old Alabama, parked somewhere in Tennessee...
A little Dixieland Delight and It Feels So Right,
And It’s Love In The First Degree-ee-eee!

Forget about Sinatra or Coltrane, or some ol’ Righteous Brothers song,
And Barry White ain’t gonna work tonight, if you really wanna turn her on;
Play some back home come on music that comes from the heart,
Play something with lots of feeling, ‘cause that’s where music has to start…

Now we’re listenin' to Old Alabama, and we’re drivin' through Tennessee,
A little Dixieland Delight and It Feels So Right and its Love in the First Degree...

Yeah’ you know we’re listenin' to Old Alabama (old Alabama) drivin' through Tennessee (Tennessee)
A little Why Lady Why at The Right Time of The Night
Oh and she can’t keep her hands off of me-ee-eee

Oh, play me some old Alabama,
Oh, play me some old Alabama...
Won’t you play me some old Alabama,
Play me some old Alabama...
Won’t you pla-ee-ay-ay
yeee-haw!!!

"One Of Those Lives"

"One Of Those Lives"



Rush hour traffic,
Always puts me in a bad mood.
I got chewed out by the boss today,
And now I'm stuck on highway 92.

Then you call me on my cell phone,
While I'm cussin' out a Cadillac.
You say remember Tom and Jenny's little boy?
Well, the doctors say the cancer's back.

Man its been one of those days,
When I been thinking poor me.
I got no right to complain I guess,
Cause right now all I can see.

Is a little angel in a Yankees cap,
It makes me realize.
It's just been one those days for me,
But for him it's been one of those lives.

Everybody under my roof,
Is healthy- knock on wood.
Oh but I sure do sweat the small stuff,
I don't thank God as much as I should.

Tonight I'm thinking about Tommy and Jenny,
And how they spent the last four years.
All those extended stays in Memphis,
All the sleepless nights, the prayers, the tears.

It's just been one of those days,
Where I was thinking poor me.
I got no right to complain I guess,
Cause right now all I can see.

Is that family moving back to Target House,
It makes me realize.
It's just been one those days for me,
But for them its been one of those lives.

And so it's been one of those days,
I let things get to me.
I got no right to complain,
Cause when I look around I see.

Folks that are fightin' for every breath,
And it makes me realize.
It's just been one for those days for me,
But for them it's been one of those lives.

"Online"

"Online"



I work down at the pizza pit
And I drive an old Hyundai
I still live with my mom and dad
I'm 5'3 and overweight

I'm a Sci-Fi fanatic
Mild asthmatic
Never been to 2nd base
But there's a whole nother me
That you need to see
Go check out MySpace

'cause online I'm out in Hollywood
I'm 6'5 and I look damn good
I drive a Maserati
I'm a black belt in Karate
And I love a good glass of wine

It turns girls on that I'm mysterious
I tell 'em I don't want nothing serious
'cause even on a slow day I can have a three way
Chat with two women at one time

I'm so much cooler online
So much cooler online

I get home, I kiss my mom
And she fixes me a snack
I head down to my basement bedroom
And fire up my Mac

In real life the only time I
Ever even been to L.A.
Was when I got the chance with the marching band
To play tuba in the Rose Parade.

Online I live in Malibu
I posed for Calvin Kline, I've been in GQ
I'm single and I'm rich
And I got a set of six pack abs that'll blow your mind

It turns girls on that I'm mysterious
I tell 'em I don't want nothing serious
'cause even on a slow day I can have a three way
Chat with two women at one time

I'm so much cooler online
Yeah I'm cooler online

When you got my kinda stats, it's hard to get a date
Let alone a real girlfriend
But I grow another foot
And I lose a bunch of weight everytime I log in

Online I'm out in Hollywood
I'm 6'5 and I look damn good
Even on a slow day, I can have a three way
Chat with two women at one time

I'm so much cooler online
Yeah I'm cooler online
I'm so much cooler online
Yeah I'm cooler online

"Out In The Parkin' Lot"
(feat. Alan Jackson)

"Out In The Parkin' Lot"
(feat. Alan Jackson)



I'm sittin' on the fender of someone else's truck
Drinkin' Old Crow Whiskey and hot 7 Up
Out in the parkin' lot

You can hear the band playin'
Right through the walls
Ain't no cover charge
Ain't no last call
Out in the parkin' lot

[Chorus]
Yeah, I love to see the neon dancin' on the gravel
And I love to hear the pickup trucks as they come unraveled
Some 've given up
Some 've given in
Looks like everybody's lookin' for a friend
Out in the parkin' lot

Whoops, there's a couple
Who could not wait to get home
They're probably in love so let's leave them alone
Out in the parkin' lot

There's a couple of cowboys
Puttin' up their dukes
But there weren't much to it after both of 'em puked
Out in the parkin' lot

[Repeat chorus]

Now the band is on the bus
And they're all loaded up to leave
But the drummer's got a girlfriend
And she's tuggin' at his sleeve
Out in the parkin' lot

[Repeat chorus]

I'm sittin' on the fender of someone else's truck
Drinkin' Old Crow Whiskey and hot 7 Up
Out in the parkin' lot
